RingCentral Connect Platform™ reaches 9 million daily API requests
BELMONT, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
RingCentral,
Inc. (NYSE:RNG), a leading provider of enterprise cloud
communications and collaboration solutions, today announced the addition
of a new tier plan and expanded benefits to the RingCentral
Connect Platform™ Partner Program, for companies building apps on
the RingCentral Connect Platform. The expanded structure is driven by
the accelerated growth of the RingCentral Connect Platform now with
5,000 developers and receiving over 9 million API call requests a day*
and a 200% increase of platform usage, year over year. The program
expansion will empower organizations to leverage unified communications
as a service (UCaaS) to customize business workflows for improved
productivity.
“There’s a significant opportunity to build applications that integrate
with RingCentral and transform the way people communicate, collaborate,
and connect. The expansion of our program offers developers and
integration partners new resources to amplify their investments in the
Connect Platform,” said David Sipes, chief operating officer at
RingCentral. “Our developer ecosystem has grown to more than 100 partner
integrations and 5,000 developers, who are delivering on the true vision
of a unified collaborative communications experience.”
The three new tiers—Authorized, Premier, and Elite—were created to meet
the different needs of partner program members. All tiers will receive
developer support resources and their apps will be showcased in
RingCentral’s App
Gallery. Premier partners will also have access to marketing and
sales enablement programs, including customer and partner events. The
Elite tier delivers deep go-to-market activities, such as exhibiting at
regional customer events, invitation to speak at ConnectCentral™,
RingCentral’s user conference, and co-development of customized
marketing and sales programs.
Some of RingCentral Connect Platform integrations include: Box, Google,
Intelestream, Microsoft, Okta, ProsperWorks, Salesforce, ServiceNow,
Tenfold, TextUs, Workato, and Zoho.
The RingCentral Connect Platform, launched two years ago, has become one
of the largest and most diverse developer ecosystems in the UCaaS
market. Third-party developers are building their applications on the
Connect Platform to integrate with voice, SMS/MMS, team messaging, fax,
and call data. Leveraging open APIs, chatbots and AI-powered bots on the
Connect Platform along with the expanded offerings of the Connect
Platform Partner Program, organizations can fundamentally change the way
they empower their employees to communicate, collaborate, and connect.
“RingCentral's market leadership, along with the breadth of its Connect
Platform Partner Program, is a key enabler for us in transforming our
customers’ businesses,” said Markus Zirn, VP of business development at
Workato, a leading enterprise integration platform and a RingCentral
Connect Platform partner. “Using RingCentral’s open platform triggers
workflows within internal and external-facing applications that increase
both organizational productivity and customer satisfaction.”
